Best Chicken Soup!

This is the BEST chicken soup! I exchanged the hominy with whole kernel corn, (eWW)
this is a really simple, really fast recipe that is perfect for the nights when you have no time to spare. To make it go faster, you can break down the chicken the day you go grocery shopping, then simply drop it in the pot when needed. This really cuts down on the most time consuming part of the prep.
